Davis Tate says ..
A quietly situated and well-presented detached house with naturally bright accommodation and West-facing rear garden. There is a local shop just 200m away and the Thames Path is a short walk. There are nearby regular bus services to Reading and Pangbourne. EPC Rating C.
Property Oracle says ..
The property is located in Purley on Thames, Reading, Berkshire. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to several railway stations, including Tilehurst (1.53km), providing access to Reading and beyond. Several primary schools are within a reasonable distance, with Westwood Farm Infant and Junior Schools and Purley Cofe Primary School all receiving ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings. This positive aspect enhances the property’s family appeal and potential desirability. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is presented well, with modern updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. There is no visible evidence of significant repair or renovation needs, suggesting a move-in ready status. The exterior also looks well-maintained, with a neat garden. The property includes a garden, as evidenced by the images. The garden appears to be of a reasonable size for a property of this type, offering outdoor space for relaxation and recreation. Considering the list price of £485,000, the average price in the area (£532,065), and the property’s size (860.60 sqft), the price seems reasonable. While the average price per sqft in the area is £394, this property is slightly below average in size. The property’s good condition and the inclusion of a garden could justify its price point, particularly when compared to other nearby properties. The lack of sqft data for comparable properties prevents a more precise price per sqft comparison. However, the overall price seems competitive within the local market.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
